2. Breakfast is the most important part of the day. If you do not want unpleasant odors to spread from your mouth, start eating breakfast.
   When you eat breakfast, you activate the salivary glands immediately in the morning so your mouth will not be dry. And dry mouth also causes bad breath.
   Don’t just rely on brushing your teeth in the morning, because if you haven’t had breakfast chances are that you will experience discomfort during the day.
3. It is unlikely that coffee lovers will give up their morning routine and stop drinking coffee because your teeth are a bit yellow and you have bad breath .You don’t have to give up your morning coffee, but you do need to know that the coffee can dry out your mouth. And the more you drink, the worse it smells. So always have a glass of water with your coffee.
4. The mouth is home to bad and good bacteria and the bad bacteria, H.Pylori, is one of the main causes of bad breath.
   H.Pylori mostly lives on the tongue, so every time you brush your teeth, brush your tongue as well. If you can, brush your teeth at least 2-3 times a day.
5. Chewing gum containing sugar will not help, so chewing gum without sugar should be used. This will reduce the amount of bacteria that cause caries and bad breath.

   If you are not used to using floss or interdental brushes, it is never too late.

If you are on a diet, try a more balanced diet and exercise. It is never good to eat only one group of foods, and the best slogan for healthy eating and healthy living is: “Everything is good in moderation.”
8. Alcohol adversely affects the salivary glands and drains the mouth. You may be well aware of the scenario when you relax with a glass of wine in the evening, and the next morning your mouth is so dry that you can drink hectoliters of water. When enjoying a glass of wine it is good to drink a glass of water and brush your teeth before going to bed
